Thomasin McKenzie Revisits Making The Hobbit: Battle of the Five Armies

Thomasin McKenzie has been on a number of sizable sets over the years including M. Night Shyamalan’s Old, David Michôd’s The King, Taika Waititi’s Jojo Rabbit and more, but you don’t really get much bigger than the set of a Hobbit movie.

McKenzie is now very well known for all those aforementioned titles, Leave No Trace, Last Night in Soho and more, but one of her very first feature film credits was actually The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies, the third and final installment of Peter Jackson’s Hobbit trilogy. The movie had a reported production budget of $250 million and featured a slew of epic set pieces. McKenzie is credited as Astrid in the film, a young girl living in Lake-town, the location attacked by Smaug at the very beginning of the film.

With Last Night in Soho now playing in theaters, McKenzie joined us for an episode of Collider Ladies Night to retrace her steps in the industry thus far and took a moment to revisit being on a Hobbit set at such a young age, having only been on two far smaller sets prior. Check out what she said in this After Hours clip!
